Plenty of beef available here in the rural areas.The city types are welcome to try grilled rat,I hear it tastes like chicken.

So that is why steaks have shot up to $12-$14 per pound.

Then you have the BLM harassing ranchers out West. That can't be helping things.

People in the great Progressive cities need to eat less meat and more creatures that are endemic to cities such as cockroaches, rats, etc. which will reduce CO2 emissions and make the UN happy.

A friend of ours with a cattle auction barn says that cattle are so high it’s scary.

We have some cattle that we paid 42 hundred for 3 years ago, we sold the calves and made 46 hundred and had the cows left. As of now, we have their yearlings and the cows have new babies and he says we could get 25K for them.

I’d like to keep about 4 of the cows and sell the rest but I’m sure my husband won’t sell them.

I don’t see cattle population coming up for around 5 years the drought in the west has been going on too long.

mmm...

Per capita beef consumption in the USA has been going down for decades. Beef and other meat exports are at record or near-record highs.

Processors that can’t make money should shut down.

A neighbor down the road had his fence cut and 5 cows stolen a few weeks ago.

Prices here are crazy high.

I wonder how is the Florida cattle situation. No drought down here.

I planned on making a pot of my world-famous homemade beef-vegetable soup. I priced beef shanks (bones-in) at Publix and saw that the meat alone for the soup (made in a standard-size soup pot} would be a little over twenty dollars.

No soap to that...er, no soup.
